Address Unknown was successful in pair of minor events and third in listed company last season for Dermot Weld. However, below form on final outing and without usual blinkers and tongue tie on debut for new yard.
Blue Bajan was better than ever for this stable last season, landing Henry II Stakes at Sandown and close third in Goodwood Cup. Not at best final 2 starts, but no surprise to see him bounce back on return.
Dandino showed continued improvement early last year, winning Group 2 at Newmarket and not discredited in top company thereafter. Below par on final start, but one to beat if new yard have him back to best.
Electrolyser generally struggled in pattern company last year despite running respectably, and similar story in Dubai over the winter. Likely to find a few too strong once more.
Zuider Zee was knocking on the door in top handicaps last season prior to landing November Handicap, and solid third in French listed race (1½m) on final start shows he is capable of mixing it at this level.
Eternal Heart is a front runner who was a progressive 3-y-o, winning 3 times before making frame in listed company. Returned with battling success in minor event at Doncaster (1½m) and step back up in trip ideal.
Parlour Games developed into a useful handicapper last year, winning 3 times, including the Melrose at York. Signed off with good second in Kempton listed race and no surprise if capable of better this year.
Solar Sky stepped up on maiden success with a creditable second in the Queen's Vase at the Royal meeting, and ended campaign with third in this grade back at Ascot. Type to make a better 4-y-o and respected.
Myplacelater thrived in 2010, winning 5 times up to 1½m. Better than form figures suggest when mixing it in good company last year, but poor effort on debut for this yard last month and others preferred.
Timeform 1-2-3:
1. Eternal Heart
2. Dandino
3. Solar Sky
Timeform View: A good renewal in prospect. Dandino would prove hard to beat if reproducing the form of his Jockey Club win at Newmarket last May, but is taken on with the race-fit Eternal Heart who can gain his first victory at this level. Solar Sky appeals best of the remainder.
